Hi everyone, I'm jumping on here. She arrived June 19, married June 25, filed AOS July 8, got NOA July 13. Just got the bio letter on July 24, scheduled for August 8. 

 

I thought our office would be Charlotte, NC since we live in NC, but our office is actually Greer, SC (which is much closer).

 

Are we all in the same boat for LPR, AP, and EAD, or are some countries faster than others for this stage?

 

Thanks and good luck all!

Welcome, to the best of my knowledge at this point the processing times varies by uscis office that is assigned to you. The country portion is when you are doing the initial petition either CR1 or K1. We are waiting for our letter for my wife biometrics hopefully this week we will get it.

I didn't send my SS card. I put my SSN where it asked and included a copy of my passport. I figured they'd ask for those things at the interview.

I didn’t include anything I mean it’s with my other paperwork from Poe I just hope they don’t rfe my husband wants to work soon 

Same here as GeeRaf.........I've always provided passport as evidence of US citizenship.   I never use the birth cert.   If you'd happened to use your passport, you'll be fine.  Assume you're sponsor and needed it for the financial affidavit.  If you included nothing, you may get lucky, but based on how many people are getting zinged for birth cert, even when included.......I'd figure on the RFE.

Daim........seems you are blazing through the steps.   Based on the stats, Greer is an outstanding office.   I wouldn't worry about AP/EAD a whole lot, as you'll likely have GC in 4 months.   (granted this is based on only 4 records, so results may not be 100 percent, but seems pretty good)    Our office is Orlando......we're hoping for a Jan/Feb AP and GC after a year.

Mailed my AOS package July 17

USPS tracker said delivered on July 19th 

Got text notifications July 25th for case received.  My current I-485 status on new and old site is "Fingerprint fee received" (or something almong those lines)

We submitted our paper work on July 17th as well! No hard copy yet and I haven't received a text, so I can't track it. Waiting patiently-ish!!

So I’m sending my packet today, just a quick question we can file without social security number right? I have one on the way but it’s taking forever and don’t wanna wait for it any longer. Please let me know ASAP

Right...........I seriously doubt Kendall FL is actually 590 days.   If so, I feel sooooooo fortunate that we're not in Miami.   

 

Unfortunately, Orlando is based on 16 cases, so it's likely to be somewhat accurate.

I live in Kendall and looking to send mine so will probably be located there :'(

Hello VJ's,

 

Good day, i just want to ask if upon filing the I-485 should i includ evidence like photos of our wedding ceremony, joint acoount bank statement of I and my spouse or any other evidence and also about the Advance Parole should i really need to file it together with I-485 and EAD? i have no plans of going out in the US so might as well not to file an AP?  thank you

The AP is an easy form to fill out and doesn't require any fee when submitted with the I-485. There isn't really a reason not to include it in your package.  I included no evidence of relationship, only the documentation required.  You can use the cover page in the first post of this thread as a guide.
